Video: Red Bull Brings The Airplane And The Parachute Together (Why Not?)
So I'm gonna say that this fun little piece of Red Bull aerosportin' is a little less fantastic and a lot more awesome video entertainment. I might be wrong, but hangin' on the prop with a rate of sink that matches a skydiver under canopy doesn't seem like it's really all that big of a deal (not sayin' it's easy, but not sayin' it's hard either)... however, the way this HD video is put together is a really big deal. Definitely a must see!
I love the view you get of an aircraft being tossed about the sky when shot from a roving helicopter. Wow. This is the kind of stuff that people like you and me could watch ALL DAY LONG! Hmm, I like that idea. How about a major motion picture (with an emphasis on motion) that's really just two hours of insanely hot aerobatics and the most incredible camera views ever. No big trumped-up plot, no sappy love story, just hardcore aeroports, lots and lots of smoke and a lotta g's! (I'll give my friends at Red Bull a call and we'll see if we can get right on that : )
disclaimer: I have no friends at Red Bull : /
